Let h = half dollars (50¢ or .5)
let p = pennies (1¢ or .01)
0.5h + 0.01p = 23.96
h + p = 93
multiply top equation by (-100) to make coefficients of p opposite
-50h - p = -2396
h + p = 93
combine
-49h = -2303
simplify
h = 46
find p
46 + p = 93
subtract & simplify
p = 47

Devin has 47 pennies and 46 half dollars.

A book sold 39,300 copies in its first month of release. Suppose this represents 6.1% of the number of copies sold to date. How
alexdok [17]

Answer:

644,262 copies

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a proportion problem, and we are given three values and one variable which is the total number of copies sold to date (x). Then we can use the Rule of Three to solve this problem. To do this we simply multiply the diagonal values and divide by the last value which would give us the value of the variable x

39,300 copies  <======>  6.1%

    x   copies   <=======>  100%

(100*39,300) / 6.1 = 644,262 copies

Therefore, a total of 644,262 copies have been sold to date.
